This wont apply to me because my local gas supplier only does trades.

The freezer I will be using to build a keezer will fit 4 cornies perectly. I will just have to build a collar. I plan on keeping the CO2 on the outside and running a hose through the collar. Then I got to thnking, will the warm co2 effect the cold beer? Does the co2 have to be refrigerated also?

attach the regulator to a piece of scrap wood or sheet metal and then attach either one to the wood collar. The wood or sheet metal would act as a hanger.

I think epoxy would be your best bet. Gorilla glue would also hold but it expands and you will need to clamp the handle in place.

Well I have a few pieces of 1" square aluminum stock that are 8" long. I also have a small machine shop(metal cutting lathe, drill press, grinders) so I thought I would build the manifold myself. I just wanted to see what others had so I could get a few ideas.

Hello All: I am in the process of accumulating parts to build my keezer. It will have room for 4 kegs. Right now my set up will only accomodate 1 keg and I want to expand it with a manifold. I have the tools and equipment to make my own manifold but I would like to see exactly what all is...

Its a Belgian White, so its always been in the primary.

I brewed this batch last December but have been really bust this past year. I kept holding off on bottling it because I am going to build a keezer. I have all the components to build it, I just cant seem to find the time. Anyway the beers been sitting for 10 months and now I want to start...

Any chance you got that tower off of Craigslist? I saw that on there for a while.

They also have this one which is a few bucks cheaper. Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices

Dont give up on them. I doubt that the ice stretched the openings. The rolled edges were probably pushed up and unrolled. I would try hammering them back into their original position. Get yourself a piece of 2x2 and cut it to fit just inside the tank so as to give support to the top. Then use a...
